`Shark Tale'

Movies - PARENTS GUIDE

What it's about: A vegetarian shark and an ambitious fish become friends in this gangster-film spoof.

The Kid Attractor Factor: It's a cartoon.

Good lessons/bad lessons: It's about friendship, true love and diversity. On the other hand, some feel it's guilty of ethnic stereotyping because most of the gangster sharks seem to be Italian-Americans.

Violence: Yes, but only the cartoon kind.

Language: A mild word here and there. There are a few mild flatulence jokes.
